It's not really necessary to do that even: just press and hold down the left mouse button on the title bar and move the browser to wherever you want.

It really is necessary if the window is on a different display which you can't see. I have an HDTV as a secondary display and unless it is switched on with the correct input selected, I can't see the title bar to click on it.

A workaround is to enable the Menu Bar via Firefox->Options->Menu Bar, which brings back the traditional Windows title bar. With Menu Bar enabled the move function is restored.
